Low Carb DietsFrom: Luci (anonymous@obgyn.net)Mon, 5 Feb 2001 23:13:48 -0600 (CST)
Hello, I was diagonosed with PCOS last summer. My doctor said I have nothing to be concerned about, since I have 4 periods a year, my cholestol is very good, and I have lost 30 pounds. My doctor knows very little about PCOS, so everything I have learned has been from books and the internet. I have read that a low carb diet has been proven to improve symptoms. Since this time, I eat a very balanced diet and workout regularly, but my periods are still approximately 3 months apart. I have opted to not use medication to treat my PCOS since I have read about the side effects. Has anyone one had success treating there PCOS through diet and exercise? What things has everyone done (as far as diet) that have been effective? Does anyone know of a nutritionist who has experience dealing with PCOS that could help me refine my diet and thus improving my condition? I'm sorry for unfocused questions. I have had little luck with my doctor, and I am afraid of another doctor "fufuing" my condition. I want to find a doctor who know about my condition and will discuss the alternatives to treating PCOS without medication. Thanks in advanced in suggestions or help.
